Good 10 Thoughts for the weekend. Life in the Fast Lane is easy top five - one of best guitar riffs of all time.
Great having the Eagles list. Will be playing them soon do to this good reminder. Hotel California is one of my all time favorite songs
Original Poster, Site Owner, if I may, did you forget that Gerald Jones once said that Troy Aikman looked good in the shower?
I used to play in a charity golf tourney in Aspen. Glenn Fry would perform the night before in a tiny bar in Aspen. I’d be dancing 3 feet from Glenn and another 3 feet from Kevin Costner and dancing with one of his rejects.
didn’t get any better than that.

Man, come on, I had a rough night, and I hate the f*ckin' Eagles, man.
The “CJ with only 3 fewer reps than Roach” take was money! I mean, seriously? I couldn’t believe it either.
Guess my most remembered Eagles songs are extremely different from the "experts".
I seem to always go back to:
"Try and Love Again" (Guitar at the end).
"Wasted Time"
"The Last Resort"

Saw the Eagles in the late 70's and early 2000's. IMO, top 5 American rock band of all time.
My favorite song of theirs did not make your list but exemplifies Henley's amazing voice and lyrics.
The Last Resort.
She came from Providence, the one in Rhode Island
Where the old world shadows hang heavy in the air
She packed her hopes and dreams like a refugee,
Just as her father came across the sea
She heard about a place people were smilin',
They spoke about the red man's way, how they loved the land
And they came from everywhere to the Great Divide
Seeking a place to stand or a place to hide
Down in the crowded bars out for a good time,
Can't wait to tell you all what it's like up there
And they called it paradise, I don't know why
Somebody laid the mountains low while the town got high
Then the chilly winds blew down across the desert,
Through the canyons of the coast to the Malibu
Where the pretty people play hungry for power
To light their neon way and give…

Add. New York Minute and No More Cloudy Days and I’m right there with you.
That top 10 list of songs by the Eagles is one that I agree with. Those songs will never get old.
Lyin Eyes, if your Eagles top ten excludes this, you need to go back and do it again.
I might be alone in this but disappointed in the ratio of NBA to soccer talk in this column.
I grew up playing soccer, I like soccer but are there really more EPL fans here than NBA?
Just a thought.

Lyin eyes won the Eagles a Grammy. It’s gotta be top 10. And I always thought Victim of Love was a great rocker.
Texas didn't lose this game on sketchy calls, it lost this game due to the bullpen giving up hit and after hit....
There are so many good Eagles songs:
Some of my favorites not on Ketch's list are:
Lyin Eyes
Victim of Love
Wasted Time
Witchy Woman
Those Shoes
Best of My Love
Life in the Fast Lane
I'm willing to guess a LOT of those people in the 11% (doesn't need a Big 12 title) foolishly have Applewhite in their top 5. For sure Ehlinger needs a conference title to crack that. Even it would be a barely. Unfortunately for a James Brown, he doesn't have some of the non-football related stuff that Ehlinger has that clearly endears him to the fanbase.
I wouldn't have Desperado quite that high. And Heartache Tonight #3? AHEAD of Take It Easy?
